my nephew is very ill. though, we're not sure how to cure whats wrong. he had a seizure today and had to be taken to the hospital. he was in a coma-like state after it stopped. he didnt know where he was or how he got there. this is the first grand mall however, that he has had. he has also had the petit mall seizures where he is unresponsive. he seems like hes there but, his mind has literally shut itself down. he's had 4 of those. im scared for cody. hes only 7 years old and having to go through all of this. petit mall seizures in class and the teacher things hes doing it on purpose and not paying attention. though, the doctors have sent notes saying very different. i feel helpless. i love my nephew more than anything or anyone in this world. it kills me inside to think this could end his life. they have done mri's, ct scans of the brain, dozens of tests and only once did something show up. it said there was an abnormality in the stem of the brain. thats all they could say. so when they sent him for more tests they said nothing showed up.
